Industrial Applications

These self-aligning idlers are installed on long-distance ore conveyors, sinter distribution lines, and hot DRI handling systems to prevent belt misalignment, reduce spillage, and extend belt life in demanding steel plant operations.
Application 1

Long-Distance Ore Transfer Conveyors

Maintaining belt alignment on overland conveyors transporting iron ore from mines to pellet plants across undulating terrain.
Application 2

Sinter Plant Distribution Conveyors

Correcting belt drift on conveyors distributing sinter mix to multiple strand sinter machines with frequent directional changes.
Application 3

Hot DRI Conveyor Systems

Ensuring belt tracking on conveyors handling hot sponge iron where thermal expansion can cause belt wander and misalignment.
